Penumbra: Overture

Sneaking and hiding

A first-person survival horror set in a desolate Greenland mine, where you're nearly defenseless and rely on physics-based puzzles and hiding to survive. Its oppressive atmosphere and mouse-driven object interaction define the experience.

Outlast II

Dread and tension

As defenseless cameraman Blake, you flee through a remote Arizona village of religious zealots armed only with your camcorder's night vision. A disturbing, relentlessly intense horror trip that blurs reality and hallucination.

Outlast

Penumbra: Black Plague

Sneaking and hiding

Among the Sleep

A first-person horror adventure seen through the eyes of a toddler wandering a distorted home and eerie dreamscapes at night with a talking teddy bear. There is no combat, just hiding, light puzzles and a haunting story about comfort and a troubled family.

Manhunt 2

Sneaking and hiding

As a traumatized asylum escapee you sneak through grim environments and dispatch enemies with brutal executions. This stealth horror game is notorious for its extreme violence and oppressive atmosphere.
